Remember how Perry Como’s ambition was to own a barber shop? Dean Martin was the son of a barber from Steubenville, Ohio.

The drunken womanizer act he showed on TV and on the stage in Las Vegas was just that, an act. He borrowed it from comedian Joe E. Lewis. In fact, his second wife said once that “he was home every night for dinner.”

Martin recorded 33 studio albums and acted in over 40 films. Here he is singing “It’s Beginning to Look a Lot Like Christmas,” from a compilation album.
